➤ When should a person with a hiatal hernia avoid lying down after eating?
Avoid lying down for at least two to three hours after meals, and longer after large or fatty meals. Remaining upright allows digestion and reduces intragastric pressure that pushes acid into the esophagus. Light activity like walking can help gastric emptying and limit reflux episodes.
